‘Talkin’ bout revolution’

Don't you know
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper

While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Don't you know
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs

Don't you know
You better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Oh I said you better run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

It's finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution
It's finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution oh

While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
And finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution

It's finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no

Is considered a Marxist song for his lyrics, In this Tracy Chapman is trying to change the things, change the world because she thing that has to change. Why? Because the people, the mankind, the society is so unjust with the poor people, the classified them like a poor or rich people and discriminates them by treacting them in very differents ways. 
She relates a portrait for all this people, because the other people that doesn't do this, has right to live a better life, but they don't let them to do it. She making reference to "the bougrgeoise", and she say "run" to them because the poor class is going to take command and the things are going to be different.

Holidays in France.

The last summer, my boyfriend invited me to spend a few days with him and his mother on a trip, because her sister was studying in France and we were going to visit her. She was in France to learn the language and live a little more. She was studying in a beatiful place, it was fantastic, everything around you was nature, peace and harmony.
Really I'm still in love with that place, and I plan to visit it some day when I have the resources to do it. But it isn't only the place, and the beauty, but also the people was fantastic, they really wanted you to feel good. They help you, and help each other, so everyone help. That was the first impression for me.
But that is not all, we visite a forest, oh, it was a very big and beatiful forest, the best forest that I have ever seen. Just fantastic, we spend the day at the forest, we walk so much, and we see the biggest trees. The forest is called "La Forêt de Tronçais". I think I can pass all the trip in this forest, but it is so cold too...
We passed Sant Jordi there too, and it was very different and special, there it is customary to go all white to live the summer and together make a bonfire... We danced and we had a lot of fun. For me it was a moment very special in my life, to know new cultures and customs to do things that maybe are better or more special. So it was the best trip and experience in my summer... Really I love it.

A new friend at home.

A few days ago, I had only one cat, that's fun, because now I have two. My "original cat" is named Gary, he is a white beatiful cat. He came home three years ago because I found him in the street and me and my family picked up him and we take him at home. He is a cat very lonely and sometimes grumpy, but if you don't treat him like a crybaby he is a very special cat, and so lovely.

Gary sleeping

But some days ago, I was doing my homeworks and my mother told me a little kitten was in our street and she was hungry and alone, I thought that I had seen her before. I thought going to give her food and give her some help because she is so little. I have cat food in house for Gary, of course, so I took it and I went down to give her.

Me and my mom open the door and call her, and it was a matter of seconds that she entered into the garage. Certainly she was so hungry and alone, she caressed us and she was very affectionate with us, as if she always knew us.

At the moment of leaving her out. her little face watching me and my mom like a desolate baby, really she looked like that... It was so sad, and my mom, actually not me, said that we would let her spend the night at home, and once she get home, and found her site, seriously she had found already her house. And so far, live with us. Her name is Nala.

At the beginning, Gary was so confused and angry, he so lonely and receive visits is not his best point, so he was not very kind or friendly with her, he grunted and avoided her. She was so scared because Gary did not leave room for her, so she was not welcome for him. But she is small and a little cat, and she annoys him all the time with her games. So he ended up playing with her...

They are so fun when they play together!

My optional subjects

Now I'm in "the post-compulsory studies", and I can choose my subjects. So, this is the "first important choise" that we make in our lifes because that choice leads us to our careers or provides us to a future about what we want to do, or study.

Resultado de imagen de literature tumblrSo I made my difficult choise and it was so hard to me. In 4th of ESO I was convinced I wanted to study biology and make the "scientific baccalaureate", but luckily I ever wanted to do Latin and I chose this too in 4th of Eso. So I did Biology, Latin and Info (computing) like a optional subjects. I got a 9 in Biology, but a 10 in Latin also, in info too but that doesn't matter, it was easy... 

At this moment I enoy Biology, but so much Latin. In Maths I wasn't doing very well, so I started to ask me if something else could be much better for me because Maths and science were the ones that made me feel bad and stress, the opposite of what I wanted. Then I thought about how good I was in Latin and maybe I wanted that for me, feel good with what I do, always. Science were very competitive and everyone wanted to be the best in all moment, so I didn't feel good with this. 

At the end of the course, I was very convinced that I didn't want to be stress, because I had already overcome it. But unfortunately I was also very convinced that I wanted to stdy prychology too... So that was my problem. In the summer I thought and thought again, and I decided, I prefer to be happy in my present, and have time to choose what I wanted to do from what I liked instead of spending two years of my life doing something wrong for me, somehting that made me unhappy.

So now I'm here, because I made the choise of my life, and I'm very proud of this. Actually, I really like the side where I am. avoiding  the bullying from my ex-classmates, well it is just a joke.
Now I'm doing like a optionals subjects, Latin, Greek, Literature, and History. History maybe is more difficult for me, but my first exam was very well, I'm proud again. Latin and Greek with Loreto are so great, what I actually like and want to do, and finally Literature are fun, and interesting. 
I was convinced if I didn't do these subjects I would always regret it. So I repeat, do one thing when you really like it, it's the best things that can exist.

My first term in "baccalaureate" vs My first term in "4th of ESO"

My first and maybe the second term was very stressed, seriously. I could feel the stress in my chest, I was very busy in all moments and I didn't find the way to organize my life. I was irritating in all moments. Really, I was lost, I didn't meet myself. And now, I don't know how I did it, but with patience, I managed to do it. I think how, but really I don't know. I received little help of the persons who are around me. I am of people who when suffer uses the sadness, not the rage. So I just need to take it easy and breathe, it is very important to me and when I don't do, it really affects me.  

Now, I promise to me, NEVER FORGET THE TIME, and NEVER DO IT THE LAST TIME. And I think that is all I do it. And it is effective, I recommend to you... 

Pd: me on March 20, 2016. Second term, 4th of ESO. 

My first term in 4th of ESO.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Resultado de imagen de office work vs outsourcingWell, I thought it would be a good idea, take my past and compare it with my present. Why I want to do this? Because I'm really proud of my present and not so much of my past. And I think it is a good therapy to make me see the good in the past and maybe can help me too see the bad in the present. In the first term of 4th of ESO I was not prepared to study as I wanted, even so my results were really good for me. Not only the qualifications, but also the best preparation for the next years.

It is very different to study relaxed and to study stressed. When I was at the worst point of my year, I said "stop" and really I don't know how but I was relaxed and everything had passed, and at the moment when I said stop, I started to raise my qualifications, and all was changed.

Nowadays, in my first term, I relax and my qualifications are good, but I don't want to be obsessed and devote all my time in the studies, even so I am so happy with me, proud of what I do, and what I want.

In conclusion, my improvement in studies has been great, and I actually recommend to other people who are stressed or overwhelmed it is so important to overcome the stress or bad moments be calm and relaxed all the time that we can, and most importantly, it is an exam or only a grade, not your life, and if you can't improve yourself, it is maybe because you're so dazed and that confused you. If you insist on everything being bad, you can't never get out of the "black hole" and that's not good, neither for you or for your qualifications. So, please be relax, it is important for you, for your health and for your studies.

Very heavy man has a problem - level 3

A 300 kilogram (47 stone/661 pound) man shocked doctors when he was rushed to hospital in China. Sun Liang, who is just 22-years-old, became ill last week and couldn't move himself in his own home.
When an ambulance arrived at his house, paramedics were unable to move him onto a stretcher, so a dozen security men were sent to help shift him. Sun's doctor said he was unconscious and hardly breathing.
The 22-year-old was over six kilograms and a half when he was born, and his appetite increased gradually as he grew up. Sun's uncle said that his appetite is so big that he can eat triple the amount a normal person can. When he was sent to hospital, he had acute kidney failure and was in a critical condition. Sun’s doctors said he can live a long life if he can reduce his weight by more than half.

Summary: Sun Liang is a chinese man of just 22, he is became ill because is so obese, specifically 300 kilograms. He can not move himself, so an ambulance went to his home, and twelve men were moved him to the hospital.
Sun Liang was over six kilograms and a half when he was born, and gradually his appetite grew, he can eat triple that a normal person can. He is really sick, so the doctors say him if he reduce the weight more than half, then he can live his life like a normal person...

Resultado de imagen de we are what we eat My opinion: This makes us see how important it is to take care of our body, because it is the base of our health. "we are what we eat". For me the most important of care of my body is the feeding, another people do a lot of sport and they feel so good, but I really do not have this habit, so I am looking to take care of my feeding, as much as I can. And I think that is really important to become aware of it.

New words:
rush (quickly move)
stretcher (bed for carrying someone injured)
dozen (twelve), shift (move)
appetite (to want food)
acute (very strong)
kidney (one of the two organs in your lower back which cleans blood).

Does High-Tech bring happiness?

Julio-Spain, Level 3

It’s believed that breaking new technologies offer a bed of roses to their users, but nothing could be further from the truth. Nowadays, they maybe a dangerous addition to our lives. Not only do they help us, but they could also hook us up changing our routines or lifestyle.

To make matters worse, some devices like mobiles are not safe enough to carry. Thus, please check your daily routines and the safety of your own items.  At this stage, according to some experts, behavioral addictions are coming up more and more in our stressful lifestyle, especially if you are a teenager.

Today, the biggest networking place is the Internet; one-to-one or one-to-many communications are running every single day. Young people live indoors, in front of their little screens 24/7. It’s easy to guess why their lack of interpersonal skills or develop obesity.

On the other hand, let’s move on to the topic of safety. To my regret, some models of mobiles don’t have enough qualities to carry on. Have you ever thought about the design, safety, and portability of your phone? In fact, we are carrying a small stone in our pockets. Don’t you think so?

Stories from People in Levels


Summary: These news are from a people, not from a journalist, and they explain something of their lifes as if these were to be published in the newspaper. These are in levels like the others news in levels... In this new particularly talk Julio, a spanish guy and he talk about the "Technologies" in our society. He mention first of all the mobiles or another technology is not safe,"mobiles are a small stone in our pockets". Secondly he says so many people don't have a social life, because they are all the day in their screems... and that is not healthy. The technology offers so many comforts to work, so most of people use Internet for all.


My opinion: I strongly agree with his opinion, it is a good point of view, but I would include"the false freedom". What is that? I mean, we are totally controlled by the mobil phones and with our search on Internet, etc. The famous "cookies", that register all our searches and take advantage to show us publicity.

New words:
lack: (ausencia)

Donald Trump vs. Hillary Clinton

This is an unbiased comparison of the political positions and policies of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, candidates for president from the Democratic and Republican parties respectively.

On many issues, the candidates' positions align with the political platform of their party — Clinton is pro-choice, Trump is pro-life; Clinton supports the DREAM Act and a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, while Trump wants to deport all undocumented immigrants and build a wall on the Mexican border; Clinton wants to expand gun control legislation, Trump does not; Clinton wants to raise taxes on high-income households while Trump wants to cut taxes for all income brackets.

On other issues, the lines are more blurry. Clinton has served as Secretary of State in the Obama administration, where she was responsible for orchestrating U.S. foreign policy. Trump has criticized not only Clinton's role as Secretary of State, but also questioned key foreign policy elements like NATO and U.S. presence in Japan.

Update Nov 9, 2016: Donald Trump has won the election and Clinton has conceded. Trump has won at least 290 electoral votes so far, with Clinton winning 232, 16 are still in play as votes are being counted in Michigan. Clinton had a small lead in the nationwide popular vote. 
Trump is the President level 3
Crowds of people chanted “Not my president” in the streets of California to express their anger at the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States.
Making sure that their voices were heard, hundreds marched through big cities using anti-Trump slogans and shouting insults at the newly-elected president.
Republican Donald Trump's victory over Hillary Clinton shocked many people and ended eight years of democratic control of the White House, but clearly, as the protests show, many people are not pleased with the outcome.
Summary: In The United States all is over, the elections are finished, and they have a president: Donald Trump. Are people satisfied with the outcome? It seems no. Many people is shocked with the Republican Donald Trump's victory... The crowd are in the streets and they are manifesting with slogans against Trump and saying bad words to the president... 
My opinion: 
Personally, I think Donald Trump is not the best candidate for the precidency of USA, but now that is over, so we can't do anything, we are in Spain, no have a vot. But the crowd in The United States is protesting for his president, maybe they can do something or maybe not. In my opinion this is lost,  to my mind they cannot do anything, only say the words that they want and feel much better... 
Difficult words:
chant: say repeatedly
march: walk
express: show
outcome: a result
